11. Carnivores never turn back.
When Liu Yuwei opened her eyes again, it was already 11 a.m. the next day. She banged her head vigorously to soothe the hangover headache, took off her sweater, rolled up her sleeves, and went into the bathroom. Her face, still unmade up, felt caked with something, airtight. The cool water washed away the turbidity, revealing a fair, refined complexion. Wiping away the water droplets with a cotton towel, Liu Yuwei closed her eyes and let out a long sigh. She must have drunk too much yesterday; she had no recollection of how she got home. She pulled out her phone and checked it. There were five missed calls and a bunch of WeChat messages. Xiaohe's profile picture was at the top, a message from last night. [Hey, classmate Lu Xiaolu just went through my phone and told me she saw Jin Lang outside your house. What happened?] [Confess and get leniency!] [Where's he?] A little after ten o'clock today, Xiaohe sent another unclear photo, followed by several text messages with a string of exclamation points. [Liu Yuwei, is that you in the photo? The coat and bag are exactly the same as the day you saw the movie! !!!] ! ] [Oh my god, what did I miss! ! ! ! ] [Not replying to WeChat messages or answering calls, are you still with Jin Lang? ? ! ! ! ! (Sexy expression)] Liu Yuwei stared at her phone blankly, bewildered by Xiaohe's message. She frowned slightly and clicked on the photo. At first glance, it looked familiar. Zooming in a little, it seemed the person in the photo was indeed herself. The man's face was obscured by a hat and shadows, but his figure did resemble Jin Lang. A thought flashed through her mind, and she was lost in thought when her phone suddenly rang. Another call came in. Subconsciously, she checked the caller ID and saw it was Ren Yiming. "Liu Yuwei, where did you go drinking by yourself yesterday? Lao Zhang said you didn't go there?" His voice came from the receiver, with a tone of accusation. She felt inexplicably guilty, thinking that Ren Yiming disliked her for going to another bar and not supporting her friend's business. "It's just a small bar near my house. I figured you weren't there, so I didn't want to go all the way." "So that photo really is you?" Ren Yiming ignored her explanation and pressed on. "Why, did you see the photo too?" Liu Yuwei walked over to the dining table, struggling to hold her phone between her ear and shoulder. She picked up the kettle and poured herself a glass of water. "Liu Yuwei, you've really made it! Not only did I see it, but the whole world saw it!" Ren Yiming's voice instantly rose an octave, tinged with annoyance and mockery. "What do you mean?" Alcohol not only paralyzes the nerves, it may also affect IQ. "…
When Liu Yuwei opened her eyes again, it was already 11 a.m. the next day. She banged her head hard to try to relieve the headache from the hangover, took off her sweater, rolled up her sleeves, and walked into the bathroom. Her face, still made up, felt caked with something, making it feel airtight.
The cool water washed away the turbid breath, revealing a fair and elegant face. Pulling out a cotton towel to wipe away the water droplets, Liu Yuwei closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.
I must have been drunk yesterday, I have no idea how I got back. I took out my phone and checked it. There were five missed calls and a bunch of WeChat messages.
Xiaohe’s avatar is at the top, and it’s the message he sent last night.
[Sister, classmate Lu Xiaolu just checked my phone and told me that she saw Jin Lang at your doorstep. What happened?]
【Confess and receive leniency! 】
【Where are the people?】
At around ten o'clock today, Xiaohe sent another unclear photo, followed by several text messages with a long string of exclamation marks.
[Liu Yuwei, is that you in the photo? The coat and bag are exactly the same as the ones you wore the day you watched the movie! ! ! !]
Oh my god, what did I miss!
[You don’t reply to WeChat messages or answer the phone. Are you still with Jin Lang? ? ? ! ! ! (Sexy expression)]
Liu Yuwei stared blankly at her phone, bewildered by Xiaohe's message. She frowned slightly and clicked on the photo.
At first glance, he looked familiar. Zooming in a little, the person in the photo seemed to be me. The man's face was obscured by a hat and shadows, but his figure did resemble Jin Lang.
An idea flashed through her mind, and she was in a daze when her cell phone suddenly rang. Another call came in. She subconsciously looked at the caller ID and saw it was Ren Yiming.
"Liu Yuwei, where did you go drinking by yourself yesterday? Lao Zhang said you didn't go there?"
His voice came from the receiver, with a tone of accusation.
She felt inexplicably guilty, thinking that Ren Yiming disliked her for going to another bar and not supporting her friend's business.
"It's a small bar near my house. I thought you weren't in the store, so I didn't bother to go that far."
"So that photo really is you?"
Ren Yiming ignored her explanation and continued to ask.
"What? Have you seen the photos too?" Liu Yuwei walked to the dining table, holding the phone between his ear and shoulder with great effort, picked up the kettle and poured himself a glass of water.
"Liu Yuwei, you have made great progress! Not only did I see it, the whole world saw it!" Ren Yiming's tone instantly rose eight degrees, with a bit of anger and ridicule.
"What do you mean?" Alcohol not only paralyzes the nerves, it may also affect IQ.
"What does it mean to be on the trending search on Weibo with the top male star!" The man almost shouted, as if he was furious.
"What?"
She was startled and lost her balance, causing her calf to hit the crossbar of the dining chair hard. The pain made her eyes fill with tears instantly.
The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, and then the man's voice came again, his tone becoming serious and earnest.
"Liu Yuwei, is Jin Lang the scumbag who made you get drunk late at night in Germany?"
"I've taken stock of the people around you, and I think this is the only way to explain the trending search."
Liu Yuwei was surprised by Ren Yiming's intelligence and insight, even though he had always acted like a dandy and carefree young man since they met. She had initially thought that wealthy people often went to the United States or the Kangaroo Country to earn a diploma and then return home to take over the family business. Who would come and argue with the Germans and embarrass her?
"Yeah." Liu Yuwei didn't want to hide it from him anymore, so she responded softly.
"You've never told me such an important thing. Do you consider me your friend?"
"You never asked me, but now you know." Liu Yuwei's tone was full of guilt, and his voice was as small as a hum.
"Then what are you going to do?" Without giving her a chance to answer, Ren Yiming said angrily, "Liu Yuwei, let me tell you, a good horse never turns back! You may not remember how much I drank with you, but I do!"
"Yesterday was an accident. I drank too much. I'm a carnivore, I don't eat grass, don't worry!"
"I won't tell you anymore, the takeaway I ordered has arrived."
Liu Yuwei made up an excuse and hung up the phone.
…
The photos of Jin Lang were leaked by a well-known paparazzi. The paparazzi who had been following him yesterday had heard that Jin Lang and Lin Yuwei were going to a restaurant for dinner, but they only captured Jin Lang coming out alone.
Seeing that he drove away without a mask or a hat, several people decided to follow him and try, but at most it would be a wasted trip. But they didn't expect that their luck would burst. Jin Lang, who has always been clean and has never been rumored to have any real love affairs, actually ran to a small bar to pick up a woman and then directly sent her home.
This month’s bonus is a sure thing!
…
After hanging up Ren Yiming, Liu Yuwei opened Weibo. The top trending search was #Jin Lang's relationship exposed, followed by several similar searches like #Jin Lang's girlfriend and #Jin Lang's bar woman...
When Liu Yuwei first saw the word "explosion" after these entries, she was a bit confused. But after she read Xigua Entertainment's top Weibo post and the set of pictures it had released, her mind completely exploded.
[Surprise! Jin Lang sends a mysterious woman home from the bar late at night and spends the night together!]
The accompanying pictures are some unclear photos.
The first photo is of the crew having dinner at the entrance, Jin Lang is hurriedly getting into the car;
The second photo was taken at the entrance of Lao Liang Bar. The man was wearing a baseball cap, so his face couldn't be seen clearly. He was holding a famous woman with his left arm, and a black envelope bag, which was obviously out of place, was hanging on his right shoulder.
The third photo doesn't show the man's face; he's half-bent in the car, seemingly helping someone unbuckle their seatbelt.
The fourth photo is of the entrance to an old residential complex, with a man holding his hands around a woman's waist and looking down at her;
The last photo shows a man walking out of the yard alone.
The quality of the pictures was clearly candid, as if the camera's focal length had been magnified many times. Since the first photo showed Jin Lang's face, his figure and clothing confirmed that the following photos were also of him.
Liu Yuwei enlarged the photo and examined it carefully. Fortunately, it was dark at night and her face was not clearly photographed, otherwise her entire family would have been exposed by netizens!
Although the credibility of the gossip website title is not high, these pictures actually show Jin Lang and a mysterious woman appearing to be intimate, and he even sent her home.
As soon as the news was released, Jin Lang's fans went wild.
Who is this woman? Jin Lang keeps his distance from almost all female celebrities except during business hours. Is he serious?
[What's with the saying "spending a wonderful night together"? The time can't be determined from these two pictures. It's just a publicity stunt!]
[Don't believe in rumors, don't spread them! Anything not officially announced is fake!]
[Jin Lang is already an adult, it's normal for him to be in a relationship! Girlfriend fans, please calm down, okay? Would you be happy if the real guy was actually a monk?]
Remember when people teased Jin Lang about his "polite hands"? He clenched his fists while dancing, hugging, and putting his arm around someone's shoulder? Look at the fourth picture again: those two hands tightly clasping the person in his arms, the possessiveness overflowing the screen!!! It's not very willing, but I'm definitely hooked!!
The comments on this post were split into two camps: some cried bitterly, praising the original poster's truth, while many mocked the netizen's excessive ability to judge based on the image. However, both groups quickly pushed this post to the top of the trending comments.
Liu Yuwei sat on the sofa and opened the call log on her mobile phone. The screen was glowing with a cold light. The number that was broadcast last night came into view. The call time was clearly displayed as 2 minutes and 15 seconds and 57 seconds.
A trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes, and she couldn't help but sigh secretly. It seemed that this matter was caused by herself, and she couldn't blame others.
I originally went there to drink to relieve my worries and boredom, but I didn't expect to get into even bigger trouble.
In reality, she was more worried about whether she'd said something inappropriate while drunk than about trending on social media. Her chin rested on her knees, and she curled up on the sofa. Liu Yuwei held her phone in both hands, her fingers rubbing along the smooth surface, hesitating whether to contact him.
After this incident, the other party is probably overwhelmed and busy dealing with it. After all, romance gossip can cause real financial losses to celebrities.
Just as I was thinking about it, a text message alert sound suddenly rang out, breaking the silence in the room.
I looked down and saw a message from Jin Lang: [Sorry about the online photos.]
Liu Yuwei looked at the message, stunned for a moment, and then tapped the screen to reply, "Let's talk on WeChat." Then she found the friend request he had sent her before and clicked to accept it.
She stared at the dialog box on her phone. The green cursor kept flashing, as if urging her to speak quickly.
The image of Jin Lang and Song Miao toasting in the restaurant resurfaced before her eyes. She wondered if this would be considered ruining someone else's relationship. After a moment's hesitation, she took a deep breath and quickly typed the next line.
[Mr. Jin, I should be the one to apologize for yesterday's incident. I'm sorry for causing you trouble.]
On the other side, Jin Lang received a WeChat notification, and his heart seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer. His anger was burning but he was bound by shackles and could only struggle in the silent darkness.
12 hours ago, the two were still kissing intimately, but in the blink of an eye, he became the Mr. Jin she mentioned.
When it comes to being cold and hurtful, he is nowhere near as good as her.
There was a feeling of unwillingness in my heart, and my fingers tapped the keyboard quickly.
[Liu Yuwei, you don’t remember anything about yesterday? ]
When Liu Yuwei heard this, he was startled. Could it be that he had lost his moral character after drinking? But when he got up just now, his clothes were neatly dressed and it didn't look like anything had happened.
After calming herself down, she replied, "I did drink too much and lost my memory. Please forgive me if I said something I shouldn't have said."
[Also, if you need to issue a lawyer's letter to the rumor-mongering media, I can provide free support as a thank you and compensation to you.]
Jin Lang looked at these cold words and felt that last night seemed like an unattainable dream.
A hint of disappointment flashed across his eyes, and he replied, "No need, my agency will take care of it."
